Last summer, they welcomed their first child together after falling in love on the set of their TV series The Americans.

But the show is not the first time Keri Russell and Matthew Rhys met.

While on Watch What Happens Live, Matthew revealed that they met at a kickball party ten years before they started working together, where he had 'drunkenly asked her for her number.'

Quite a story:  While on Watch What Happens Live, Matthew revealed he met Keri Russell at a kickball party ten years before they started working together

The 42-year-old explained to host Andy Cohen during the Thursday episode, with Keri seated beside him, that they first crossed paths when 'she asked me to open a beer after a kickball party.'

The Welsh actor noted that their first meeting took place in the parking lot, jokingly calling it 'very romantic.'

Matthew said: 'I drunkenly asked her for her number when she was a young, single, slip of a thing, so I sort of knew then when I was 26.'

Ten years later, they were cast as on screen husband and wife for the spy drama The Americans.

Later, Matthew didn't hesitate when asked to name his least favorite Keri Russell movie on Thursday's episode of Watch What Happens Live. 

Work together: Keri and Matthew play a couple on The Americans and also are a couple in real life

Keri recalled after doing readings and a 'heavy dose of fight training, all sweaty, at lunch, you said "Oh, you know we've met before;" and I said, "No, we haven't."'

She continued: 'You said, "Yeah, we've met before, like 10 years ago at kickball." As soon as he said that, I knew exactly what [happened] and I opened my eyes, like, "Oh! Of course I remember that."'

Keri also divulged that 10 years prior, Matthew left her a 'drunken voicemail' following their first meeting.

She playfully added: 'You were that buffoon that wouldn't stop calling.' 

Joint appearance: Keri said they were appearing jointly together for the first time on a talk show

Funny guy: Matthew kept the one-liners coming during the half-hour Bravo chat show

Later on the show, Matthew didn't hesitate when asked to name his least favorite Keri Russell movie.

'Waitress,' the 42-year-old Welsh actor quickly told host Andy Cohen during a game of Plead The Fifth.

Keri, 41, started laughing and Matthew continued ribbing her 2007 comedy.

'It was a terrible film. Every inch of celluloid that was used was a crying waste,' Matthew said straight-faced.

'He's never seen it,' Keri assured Andy, 48.

Waitress was written and directed by the late Adrienne Shelly who also appeared in a supporting role that marked her final film appearance before her murder at age 40. 

Andy at the start of the show welcomed The Americans co-stars to the Bravo clubhouse with a zinger.

'Their show is banging and so are they,' he quipped of the co-stars turned couple.

Keri revealed that it was their first joint appearance together for a chat show interview.

'We figured it was late night and we could do it,'said the former Felicity star.

She performed admirably in a game called Are Those Rhys' Pieces? in which she had to identify whether close-up pictures of body parts belonged to her beau or another celebrity.

Matthew also played a game called Playing The Field that involved trivia questions about his Brothers & Sisters co-star Sally Field.

He was roped into Plead The Fifth after Keri declined to answer a question.

Regualr game: The actress also played Plead The Fifth with Andy

She was first asked about a Mickey Mouse Club edition of Shag, Marry, Kill with Justin Timberlake, Ryan Gosling and JC Chasez.

'That's awful. I'm pleading on that,' said Keri, who first appeared on TV as a member of the All-New Mickey Mouse Club.

'Does that mean I have to shag Justin Timberlake?,' Matthew quipped.

Keri reversed her decision and instead answered that she would kill JC because he's an understanding friend, shag Justin because he's a good dancer and marry Gosling since he's a nice Canadian.

She then 'pleaded the fifth' when asked to name the most over-rated actress working today and that opened the door for Andy to ask Matthew about his least favorite Keri movie.

Matthew also revealed The Americans producers have kept them in the dark about how the FX series will conclude during its sixth and final season next year.

Good idea: The actress joked about having her TV daughter Paige on The Americans changing her name to Monica Lewinsky as the series concludes

He plays Philip Jennings while Keri portrays his wife Elizabeth who are both deep cover Soviet KGB officers living near Washington DC in the 1980s with their children Paige and Henry.

Matthew said he would like to see a 'slow mo gun fight' at the end of the series.

'I really love one specific one. Paige changes her name to Monica Lewinsky and then she becomes that,' Keri said of her on-screen daughter played by 19-year-old Holly Taylor.

The 13-episode fifth season premiered in March and the final 10-episode sixth season will air in 2018.

'This show in Russia is a comedy,' cracked Matthew who maintained a steady flow of one-liners during the half-hour episode.
